the possibility of using the kitchen to prepare simple meals in the evening is a definite plus

The property was clean and comfortable, and free dinner and breakfast is on offer which is a great way to save money too. The location is very central, I would definitely recommend this hostel

Though free internet was limited to 1/2 hour, the breakfast was decent, and the room was quiet (even though it was conveniently located to the station) - but most importantly, the particular member of staff with whom I dealt was extremely helpful and friendly.

There was comfortable beds and they offer all the information to visit the city or get to a party

The main problem of this hostel is that I had problems with FLEAS. I had really bad bites all over the first night I slept there and another guy in the same room had bites all over. The staff wasn't really helpful and they didn't do much to help. One blond girl that was on the front desk said it wasn't her problem and that she couldn't do anything to help!!!!!! They didn't even pay for the laundry of all my cloths... at least they could give me my money back!!!!!!!! Not fun to travel with flea bites!!!!! The location was great, they had also good food and met lots of people there... but I don't recomend it!!!!

Very close to the main train station and the people staying there weren't all drunk college kids. It was nice to have other young professionals staying there also.

The staff was friendly and helpful, but the location was horrible. you could walk to the major sights, but the neighboorhood was terrible and slightly sketchy. the bathrooms were decent but it was crowded and loud.

Its near the train station and if you are a walker its walking distance to everything! We only used the Metro once only because we were running out of time. The bathrooms are pretty clean, and the rooms are nice. I had a good night sleep. Breakfast is fine, bread rolls and coffee from a strange machine, but it fills you up! Half an hour free internet is good too! Overall this place was cool...

Close to station. Free pasta but not on weekends. But made me book on line for extra nights because they couldn't give me a cheap price at the desk. More atmosphere at the Palace hostel with bar. Can go over there for free pizza if the pasta wasn't enough.

I really like the atmosphere about the hostal, but for the problem was the bathroom, it's not so clean, and it's kind of difficult for a girl, because don't have much space for you to dress up. But I have a lot of fun, and meet interesting people.

The staff was very friendly. There was also a downside. At night, there were a lot of homeless people near Termini and the hostel.

The location is good, right next to the train and main bus stations. It has everything you need but is not exceptional by any means. I would assume that the other Alessandro Hostel is much better. If other places are booked up, this one is satisfactory. It is not that great though.
